Discuss Space (as in stars) here.

Do you like the ISS?

Yeah. I love space.

Me too! I saw many meteroids in Germany last night. Where there some too in your country?

I didn't stay up to watch the Perseids. They weren't bright enough, as I was only inside. At 21:27, I wondered why I hadn't seen the ISS come up, so I went into the conservatory and looked up. There was a bright dot sliding down. The ISS.
(I'm renaming this thread “Space” so it covers every topic related to it, ISS, meteor showers, all of it.)
The footage of the ISS:

I went to the link. But when I watched the Video it was just black.

Turn the monitor brightness to full, and near the middle there is a tiny dot.

Thank you. I'll try it again.

Yes, you're right I saw it.

All those sounds at the start are me closing the camera screen and zooming. I had to use the viewfinder as it was darker, so I could see it.

Aha. From where do you know that it was the ISS?

I used this website to find pass times. And no star moves that fast.

Aha. I've never seen the ISS in the sky.

The ISS moves at 8km/s.

'Bout time there was a Space topic! I can't believe I didn't come up with it!

So, on another subject, have you heard of the moon conspiracy?

Wow! That's very fast.

Yes. I believe that there is plenty of evidence against the landings, however Mythbusters has pretty much proved it.

This was originally an ISS topic; I changed it to this.

Mythbusters don't use the Scientific Method properly (as far as I can see, but perhaps I'm wrong).

Anyway, I have seen some of the videos, and you're right, PLENTY of evidence.

From what I can see in the videos:
1. When he was jumping, it looked about the same as if he were jumping on Earth.
2. On the side, there was something moving.
3. They had color cameras, but strangely the footage of them actually on the moon was in black and white.
4. The flag was moving.

Anyhow, I don't think it happened, but that's just my opinion in several billion.

Your opinion isn't the only one like that.
